Our Mission

ClotCare strives to help others improve lives by providing both patients and healthcare providers with the most up-to-date information and expert insight on optimal use of antithrombotic and anticoagulant therapy. In achieving this end, ClotCare seeks to be the premier source to which patients and clinicians turn to get information on these therapies used to prevent and/or treat unwanted blood clots that cause heart attacks, strokes, and other potentially catastrophic events.

ClotCare Online Resource was started in 2000 by Henry I. Bussey, Pharm.D. and his daughter, Marie Bussey. Since then, ClotCare has grown significantly to include an editorial board including 19 experts in the field of anticoagulation and antithrombotic therapy.
